9:37Now PlayingIn a shocking move that has sparked outrage, health authorities in the northern Iranian city of Lahijan issued an edict demanding that women not wearing their hijab correctly or not wearing a headscarf should be denied healthcare. This stringent order aligns with the regime's strict enforcement of its mandatory hijab law but fails to provide any guidelines on emergency situations where immediate treatment might be necessary. The directive has drawn strong reactions from human rights activists, journalists, and Iranians on social media. Iranian human rights lawyer Kambiz Noroozi described the decree as “by far the most blatant contravention of Iranian women’s legitimate civil and human rights and against all civilized norms,” adding that, “Sending such a letter to our health authorities is unique in the medical world, and it means that if a woman is at risk of serious injury, or even death, and needs treatment that health professionals should not serve her just because she did not wear a hijab. This is tantamount to committing a criminal act.” The incident has fueled comparisons to extremist practices and has been likened to historical instances of religious supremacy.
